LEARN MORE ABOUT LEONE MARCHANT

Hello, I’m Leone Marchant, the owner of Movement Matters. I firmly believe in the healing power of Remedial Massage and its extensive benefits. I am excited to launch Movement Matters Remedial Therapy Clinic where you can rest assured that the transformative effects of your improved movement is what matters most.

At Movement Matters, I am dedicated to helping you achieve and maintain optimal mobility. Together we will work towards restoring your body’s natural balance and enhancing your overall quality of life.

Allow me to tell you a little bit about my journey up to now…

For me, massage therapy began with a strong desire to alleviate discomfort and enhance mobility, starting with my family and friends. I later opened a mobile massage business, which I thoroughly enjoyed, and operated a home clinic for around six years. To further my expertise, I enrolled in and completed my Remedial Massage Diploma at the Australian Institute of Fitness, enabling me to provide clients with the ability to use their Private Health funds through my provider numbers with AMT.

Following my diploma, I worked for two years at a highly commended clinic in Perth, where I had the opportunity to learn from some of the best therapists in the industry.

My Expertise

I have completed numerous courses within the massage industry, Hot Stone Massage, Dry Needling, Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD), Side Lining (Pre Natal) Massage and many other modalities including Sports Taping. The modality that I personally both enjoy doing and think it highly underrated is Manual Lymphatic drainage or MLD. I also attended the internationally acclaimed ACE Manual Therapy Retreat in Mexico. These modalities equip me to treat my clients as effectively as possible, helping them move better.

Throughout my journey, I have gained experience treating a wide range of conditions, including chronic pain, postural imbalances, and stress-related tension. I am committed to ongoing professional development and staying updated with the latest advancements in remedial therapy.

In October 2024, I am undertaking advanced MLD training to offer Perth’s finest remedial and post-operative MLD treatments, ensuring comprehensive lymphatic support and promoting optimal recovery. Currently, I provide basic MLD, beneficial for clients with lymphedema, inflammation, or those recovering from surgeries like tummy tucks, liposuction, Brazilian butt lifts (BBLs), and mastectomies. MLD aids the body in detoxifying naturally and supports the healing process.

“Many scientific studies have shown that massage can reduce pain, fatigue, anxiety, depression, and nausea, particularly in patients with cancer who have had chemotherapy and surgery.”

Client Education and Compassionate Care

I am passionate about educating my clients, empowering them to understand the therapeutic benefits of each session and how it contributes to their overall well-being. At Movement Matters, I also offer massage tailored for cancer patients. Having experienced this illness with my sister, I know how much massage can provide gentle, supportive care to manage symptoms and enhance quality of life through every stage of illness. I feel a true calling to provide this care for cancer patients, having seen firsthand the positive impact it can have on their lives.

As I embark on this exciting journey with Movement Matters, I look forward to building meaningful connections within the community and guiding individuals towards improved health and mobility through personalized remedial therapy, advanced MLD techniques, and compassionate care.
